Excluding Fields from Messages

You can exclude record fields from inclusion in a rowset-based message definition using the Message Field Properties page.

After you exclude fields from records, the tree view of the message definition on the Message Definitions page displays a red icon in the shape of box next to the excluded fields.

This example illustrates a partial view of the Message Field Properties page. The example shows that the field QE_ACNUMBER has been excluded from the QE_FLIGHTDATA record.
